Are you talking about an updated app?


We are talking about THIS. The current app.

Instead of having someone spend time on coding to make this one worse, why not have them work on the new one??


And why are ads back after we were told multiple times they were just for UFC weekend? Phone Post

The amount of personal data that gets collected about people in today's modern world is staggering and only continues to increase. It is something everyone should be concerned about. Phone Post

I'm not really sure what you're asking me.

I want to have a serious conversation with you, and discuss things, but when you throw out comments such as "Instead of having someone spend time on coding to make this one worse" that tells me you are just someone that likes to complain for the sake of complaining. Maybe I am wrong.

There is a laundry list of tasks to improve/expand the app, and they are being addressed. When there are updates/information, it will be communicated.

As for why the ads are back, I can look into it and find out for you.

I am serious.

After it was brought up that there is work on a new app.

My follow up question is- why is anyone spending time tweaking THIS the current app?

Why isn't that work/time being spent on the new app?


But the main question is- why are we seeing adds again?

It caused a shit storm before- they were removed. Then added again- I made this thread and was told (and read multiple times) - just for the weekend.

Now they are back.

So what's the deal?

Are we being lied to?

Who thinks its ok to add ads to an app, we PAID for- AFTER we already own it?

Bait and switch

Search thru all my posts. I've never made a thread like this.

That should also clearly demonstrate how fucked up it is- to me Phone Post

I didn't complain. Those were just examples of useful things the work/time that was spent on turning on the ads- could be working on instead. Phone Post

Do you not get how it works? They don't make a NEW app, they update this one. The first part of your post IS bitching solely for the sake of it. They aren't working on a new app OR ignoring this one. They're UPDATING this one with new features and (hopefully) nixing the ads. Phone Post

You've got good points for sure. They definitely shouldn't be adding ad's to an app for which we already payed for. It's the only paid app on my phone that shows ad's. Release a free lite version if your gonna start fishing for ad revenue. Phone Post

A new app = a download from apple

Also an official update. Eg 2.0-2.2 version


I haven't downloaded anything new- so why is my current app changing?

Why is that change annoying adds- that they are making money off of.

THAT is the issue.


The second question, I only called them out on- why is anyone tweaking this app, the man hours spent on that should instead be spent on the update we've all heard about.

Without ads- since we paid for this.

Not bitching- an unhappy customer- after they've already taken my money. Phone Post

And my reason for bringing up iPhone 5 update=. The app is already smaller than the screen. Adding ads makes the screen real estate even smaller.

Great idea!!! Phone Post
